Cremation will take place on Thursday, June 3rd at 9:00 a.m. in the presence of her immediate family. Whilst this is happening, please take a few moments to think about Pat.
In lieu of flowers or donations, we request that sometime in the next few months that you perform an act of random kindness. Such an act is the essence of Pat’s character and beliefs. We feel blessed to have so many good friends in Victoria and around the globe and would like to thank them for all the love and support they have shown our family. A special thank-you to Dr. Catherine Fitzgerald, Dr. Karen Campbell, the staff of the Canadian Cancer Society and the Palliative/Hospice Team for their kind care and support.

We will particularly miss Pat’s company and friendship at our annual Bermuda Teachers’ Reunion. She was an inspiration and we know that our loss must be a small shadow of her family’s. Our thoughts are with you, Peter.

I know that you will find comfort in the knowledge that Pat gave much happiness to the world . Although I had not seen her for many years, I am still glad the she -and indeed all of your family- brightened my life as a teacher.
With deepest sympathy.
